The Moon today

This page is a live calculation: which sign the Moon is in right now (with the exact degree), whether it is waxing or waning, the current phase and when the sign changes. The numbers come from Swiss Ephemeris on every visit — not yesterday’s table. The sign the Moon held at your birth is a different question: that is the moon sign, with a page of its own.

The Moon in each sign: what kind of day it makes

  1. Aries

    A day that runs on momentum: quick decisions land well, and anything started fresh gets an extra push. Workouts, bold asks, and clearing the to-do list in one sprint all feel natural.

  2. Taurus

    The pace slows in the best way — comfort, good food, and steady progress beat speed. A long lunch, tending plants, or finishing one thing properly all land beautifully.

  3. Gemini

    Words flow and curiosity spikes: calls, messages, and quick errands practically handle themselves. A great stretch for catching up with friends or learning something new on the fly.

  4. Cancer

    Home turns magnetic — cooking, cozy evenings, and calls to family carry extra warmth. Feelings run close to the surface, so slow, gentle plans suit the mood better than big crowds.

  5. Leo

    Everything wants a little sparkle: creative projects, celebrations, and generous gestures hit the mark. A day when dressing up, hosting, or simply playing feels like the whole point.

  6. Virgo

    Details come into focus, and tidying feels almost pleasurable — inboxes, closets, and plans all benefit from attention. Small practical fixes done today have a way of sticking.

  7. Libra

    Charm does the heavy lifting: negotiations, dates, and joint decisions go smoother than usual. Fresh flowers, a gallery visit, or simply making a room prettier lifts the whole day.

  8. Scorpio

    The mood turns deep and honest — small talk loses its appeal while real conversations gain it. A strong day for finishing a task that kept dragging or clearing a drawer of things that no longer fit.

  9. Sagittarius

    Horizons widen: trip planning, big-picture thinking, and spontaneous invitations all feel right. Optimism comes easy, and long walks or new places feed it even more.

  10. Capricorn

    Ambition gets quiet and steady — the kind that actually finishes things. Long-term plans, budgets, and focused work sessions move forward with satisfying traction.

  11. Aquarius

    The unconventional wins: fresh ideas, group projects, and friendly gatherings spark easily. A fine day for trying a different route — in plans, in style, or in thinking.

  12. Pisces

    Everything softens around the edges: music, daydreaming, and creative work flow without effort. A quiet evening with tea and a book recharges more than usual, and intuition makes a surprisingly good guide.

Frequently asked questions

What sign was the Moon in on my birthday?

That is not a transit but the moon sign — a personal point of the chart. The moon sign page has an exact calculator by date, time and city of birth; if the Moon crossed signs that day, it warns honestly.

How do I tell whether the Moon is waxing or waning?

The page answers by itself — from the Moon’s elongation from the Sun: before the full moon it waxes, after it wanes. The illumination percentage shows how full the disc is.

When does the Moon enter the next sign?

The “in about N hours” estimate sits in the live block: the Moon crosses a sign in 2–3 days, roughly half a degree per hour. The estimate is accurate to about an hour.

What lunar day is it today?

Classic “lunar days” are counted from moonrises at a specific place, so the same moment lands on different lunar days in different cities. We give what is the same for everyone: the phase, the illumination and the sign.

The Moon’s position is astronomy; the interpretations are a symbolic system for self-reflection, not science.

What this lunar day means for you

The Moon’s sign is the shared backdrop; the personal forecast comes from your chart. Luna in the app reads it out loud every day — the arcana of the day, the mood and one concrete tip.
